You don’t need to be an endurance athlete, or an athlete at all, to ponder how the ideas that propel those athletes can help us endure the pandemic.

Read the article (linked above) for more details, but the gist:

Patience — Like an ultra race, dealing with the pandemic will take a long time and often be unpleasant. Knowing this in advance (and planning for it), can make it easier to tolerate and get through the tough times.

Pacing — In a long race, you don’t want to go out too fast only to falter at the end. In the pandemic, how can you do the same?

Process (instead of Outcome) — Break things down into smaller parts that you can focus on and over which you have some control. Pay attention to the little things along the way rather than the overwhelming big picture.

Purpose — Know why you are doing what you’re doing. In the case of the pandemic, acting in a way that benefits others may be the best “reason why.”

If you’re an endurance athlete, what other lessons have you learned from racing that can carry over into these challenging times?

I'm an international ultramarathon athlete and I wear Xero Shoes for races. No blisters. No smelly feet. But I also use them as my everyday sandals (they look way cool!) and I recommend Xeros to everyone.

As a barefoot runner I’ve heard lots about huaraches but it wasn’t until Steven made me my first pair (I have two) that I understood how much fun they are to run distances in!

Thank you for making these
amazing huaraches. I love how they feel. I forget they are there so much so I have worn them to bed a few times!
